The Heros of "76! is an iconoclastic look at our nation's founding via the little known facts of the time. For instance, did you know that Heros, without the 'e' is perfectly acceptable spelling? See any dictionary. Which of our founding fathers wrote notes to himself in Hebrew? Or had both of his vice presidents die in office? Who hated who? And why? John Adams learned French by reading funeral orations; Jefferson learned it via college texts; Franklin learned it by reading dirty joke books. Guess who the French wanted to deal with?
